Re: Starhawk Beta - Features/Other Feedback

i would really like it if the control scheme could be user modified specifically id love to have the ability to swap L1/R1 with L2/R2. i really prefer using the actual triggers to shoot and zoom. still great game cant wait for finally release.

Ok, so a few things:

Firstly, this is one of the only games that makes my eyes hurt so much. It feels like it's the abundance of clutter everywhere and the lack of sharpness and clarity. Screen looks grainy, and the hud is all over the place; please consider cleaning it up. That blue rift bar needs to be shrunk. And you have to remove that cheap rectangle animation when it fills up; it's not very subtle, as its cheap look (plain rectangle) distracts a lot.

One thing that can address the above said problems is to move back the camera. LB this NEEDS to be done. No question about it. MOVE THE CAMERA BACK.

On the minimap, it is impossible to see where the flag is whe taken: it's too tiny. But when on foot, the flag icons take up my view. Shrink the on-foot flag icons and enlarge the map ones.

Make the sniper 1 hit kill but make it hard to use, like in warhawk.

As others say, mechs need more health.

Jetpack landing speed should be increased a bit.

Hawks should be slowed down a little, for as of now, I fly across the whole map in 1.6 seconds lol.

Also, a custom control option would be great. I want to switch grenade to r2 and sprint to l2.

Lastly, I believe what made warhawk's matches so epic were the length. Starhawk's timer is too short - this must be upped. Additionally, hosts can set time limits, right?

Doesnt look grainy on my TV... also I dont see how the blue bar s a problem considering it disapears unless your building or collecting.. someone spends too uch time in the home base :smileywink:

On the minimap, it is impossible to see where the flag is whe taken: it's too tiny. But when on foot, the flag icons take up my view. Shrink the on-foot flag icons and enlarge the map ones. The flag is big on troop when your near, when your way from base and its taken youve no idea where its taken... again I dont think thi is a problem.

Make the sniper 1 hit kill but make it hard to use, like in warhawk. No... sniping is easy enough as it is, and a head shot gives a 1 hit kill... get good enough and we can all be getting them soon as a reward for practice and skill.

As others say, mechs need more health.

Jetpack landing speed should be increased a bit. Hold Cirlce for fast descent.

Hawks should be slowed down a little, for as of now, I fly across the whole map in 1.6 seconds lol. They're small maps...

Also, a custom control option would be great. I want to switch grenade to r2 and sprint to l2. Full game.

Lastly, I believe what made warhawk's matches so epic were the length. Starhawk's timer is too short - this must be upped. Additionally, hosts can set time limits, right? Full game (...again) its a beta to test mechanics and gameplay...not to give people 1 hour CTF matches where everyone forgets what problems they had.

Re: Starhawk Beta - Suggestions

This was my first time playing starhawk very cool :knavery-happy:

 

I have a few suggestions that could possibly help with game play when on foot the controls should be more qiuck and smoother movements.also, when aiming down sites the movement is to slow should be able to look around faster when ADS,the mechs are fun but should be a little easier to control when slowing down in air it should slow right down almost into a hover mode for 3-5 seconds when holding the L2 button and then continue to pick up normal speed,This would help to target ground troops and vehicles that move at a fast rate.

 

Anyways it was a great gaming experience and I look forward to up coming patches, future maps and other multi player game modes.

This may be my next fulltime game:smileywink:

 

:will there be any new maps or game modes befor the release date in May ??

Re: Starhawk Beta - Suggestions

There's going to be A LOT more maps.
Please use plain text.

GUI -- Options -- Controls -- Add Invert for both axis

Please add an "invert camera" option for all axis and for all game modes (vehicle, walking).   I realize its there for one axis, but It needs to be there for both.  For your statistics, I would not buy any game where invert is not an option on both axis.  If this was already posted, I didnt see it.
